Sprite Country

A labyrinthine gallery work in progress. The site uses CSV files as data storage to set up a series of 'trails'.

Each trail contains a series of images and texts, intended to be navigated sequentially rather than freely browsed.

The overall aims for the project are:

  • to provide a customised gallery site that fits a very basic personal need
  • offer a really simple way to browse text and images - one-click, on-rails navigation
  • have some fun coding

Setup

Dependencies

  • Sorry, this guide doesn't currently cover webserver setup, but you'll need Apache at the moment, to use the .htaccess file.
  • Install composer and run composer install from inside httpdocs/.inc
  • Data files, as described below.

Data

The site runs off CSV files for data, and needs image files if you're showing images, obviously.

CSV files:

  • httpdocs/data/trails.csv
  • httpdocs/data/trail_entries.csv

(Sample CSV files to come)

Image files for each trail should be stored in their own directory:

  • httpdocs/data/img/<trail_code>
